Effective, Environmentally Friendly PVC Plasticizers Based on
Succinate esters are promising PVC environmentally friendly plasticizers that can replace toxic phthalate plasticizers. They are not only less toxic than phthalate plasticizers but also show better resistance to plasticizer migration from the polymer matrix.
Environmentally-friendly PVC Plasticizers (Non-phthalate
This page is DIC (formerly Dainippon Ink and Chemicals) 'Environmentally-friendly PVC Plasticizers (Non-phthalate Plasticizers)'. DIC is working to develop plasticizers (non-phthalate) that accommodate usage restrictions for Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals and food utensils, containers and packaging, and toys. Examples of major applications and representative product numbers of non-phthalate
Title: A Review on Plasticizers and Eco-Friendly
Citrate plasticizers have good miscibility, biodegradable, resistant to leaching and water and have legal use as additives. The demand for bioplasticizers is reported to increase from 887...
A targeted review of bio-derived plasticizers with flame
For decades, a wide variety of products have benefitted from the use of flexible PVC, ranging from healthcare to cable to packaging & household items. The uniqueness of PVC rises from its growth as polymer from monomers and the final structure. Due to the presence of chlorine atoms, PVC is inherently flame retardant, but it cannot always meet all fire safety requirements and maintain a needed
- Can PVC be used as an environment-friendly plasticizer?
- The perspective of using the developed material as an environment-friendly plasticizer for PVC was outlooked. Waste cooking oil (WCO), mainly generated in urban areas from high consumption of refined vegetable oils, cause serious environmental and economic problems every year [Kulkarni and Dalai, 2006].
- Are plasticizers environmentally friendly?
- Four environmentally friendly plasticizer samples were obtained; their chemical structures and compositions were confirmed by gas chromatography (GC) and infrared spectroscopy (FT–IR) analyses, and their physicochemical properties and thermal stability (TGA analysis) were investigated.
- How are plasticizers characterized?
- The produced plasticizers were characterized by GC, TGA, FTIR, and physicochemical properties. Their plasticizing performance was mainly evaluated by the analysis of physicochemical properties, mechanical properties, and plasticizer migration of the soft PVC samples and was compared with those of the commercial plasticizers DINP and DEHP.
- Which plasticizers are used for soft PVC?
- Mechanical properties and migration resistance were determined for soft PVC with the use of three concentrations of plasticizers (40 PHR, 50 PHR, and 60 PHR).
- Can plasticizers replace petroleum-based plasticizer in PVC applications?
- Compared to DINP and DEHP, the migration was as much as 70% lower for each plasticizer concentration. Thus, due to their good compatibility, efficiency and thermal properties, the plasticizers synthesized in this research have the potential to replace petroleum-based plasticizers in PVC applications.
- Does plasticizer improve thermal stability and flexibility of PVC?
- Compared with commercial dioctyl phthalate plasticizer, the plasticizer developed in this study improved the thermal stability and flexibility of PVC along with a lower glass transition temperature. The plasticizer showed marginal volatility and excellent resistance for migration in PVC matrix. The mechanism behind such observation was discussed.
